As you wish. The fix was so simple and without any side-effects (there
are no .* files in the ${WRKSRC}/html dir other that `.' and `..'), so
that I've opted to not waste your and my time by asking for a formal
approval. While we on topic I would like to point out that IMO
currently MAINTAINER thing is overused - the project needs more
co-operation spirit not less, while applying MAINTAINER's lock without
taking the common sense into the consideration first works in the
exactly opposite direction. :(

Done, thank you for the reminder.
